The PGA Tour will have an announcement Thursday about revisions to the schedule, a Tour spokesman confirmed.

Golf Digest reported Tuesday that the Charles Schwab Challenge at Fort Worth’s Colonial Country Club will be the first tournament played since the sport was shut down March 13 over concerns about the coronavirus pandemic.

The Charles Schwab Challenge will move from May 21-24 to June 11-14 with no fans being allowed on the grounds, the report said. Several other tournaments will also be involved in the shuffle.

Colonial is currently open for play to members who walk. None of the infrastructure that is normally a fixture of the tournament has been installed.

Denton County courses open: Denton County, which had prohibited golf, approved an amended executive order Tuesday that allows golf courses to operate in the county with restrictions.

Dallas County, Collin County and Tarrant County all permit golf.

Denton County eased the restrictions on golf after Judge Andy Eads held a video conference call April 9 with about 30 golf course owners or general managers to discuss rules for operation to reduce the risk of exposure to COVID-19.

Chief among the rules is that the golf pro shop and clubhouse, including restrooms, must remain closed to all guests. And all tee times must be made in advance by phone or online, meaning no payments are allowed on site, and no walk-ups are allowed. Those rules are in line with the guidance letter Texas Attorney Gen. Ken Paxton provided Saturday.

The letter is non-binding, but a group of six organizations that supported the instructions, including the Northern Texas PGA, the Texas Golf Association and the Southern Texas PGA, signed a statement saying, “There will be zero tolerance as breaches may result in fines and the facility being shut down by local authorities.”

Courses open in region declines: The National Golf Foundation’s survey of golf courses revealed that 69% of the golf courses in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma are open for play. That is down 13% from last week.
